A common injury with the shoulder is shoulder impingement.  Rotator cuff exercises are important on helping your client recover from shoulder impingement.

What is Shoulder Impingement?

When the non-injured arm is at your side, there is about 6 to 14 mm of space in the subacromial space (the space between acromion and humerus).  As one moves their arm out to the side (abduction), the space in the subacromial space decreases.  With some people the humerus and acromion end up pinching the structures in the subacromial space.  The structures that could be pinching are the bursa, supraspinatus tendon or long head of the biceps tendon.  This pinching is called shoulder impingement.  Shoulder impingement is a big problem and commonly seen in my clients.  If shoulder impingement is not addressed it could lead to a partial or full tear of the rotator cuff.

Yesterday, I sent you an e-mail about needing your help.

With the creation of the Exercises for Injuries blog, I have started getting enquires from around the world about educational opportunities.  Most people are not able to attend my course in the Vancouver area but really would like to learn the content in them.  Those that contacted me have suggested that I start doing webinars so anyone from around the world can join in.  I want to hear from you, if you are interested in attending a webinar and what topics you would like to see.

Please leave a comment below answering these two questions:

Question 1: Are you interested in attending webinars?

Leave a comment below and let me know if you are interested in exercise rehabilitation webinars.  A “Yes or No” answer is fine but why you are or why you are not would be even better.

Question 2:  What webinar topics would you like to see?

I don’t know what you are interested in.  Here are some ideas that I though you might be interested in:

- Exercises to End Frequent Ankle Sprain

- Corrective Exercises to Running Injury-free

- Using Press Release to Get More Exercise Rehabilitation Clients

- Corrective Exercise for a Pain-free Back

- Exercises to Correct Poorly Firing Gluteus

- Scapular Stabilization Exercises

- Using Craigslist to Get More Exercise Rehabilitation Clients
